Your mouth is in for a luscious superlicious treat sensation. Today's sandwich spectacular from the California Avocado Commission is what I call "Holy Guacamole" on Nature's Own 100% whole wheat rolls (buns). This is a hot grilled sandwich that has a little bite back to it. If you love guacamole, you'll eat this sandwich up, and lick your fingers.
When I say sandwich, you know I refer to a scrumptious bite of bread with something incredible hiding inside. Today's bread is the multi-grain roll often used for a bun, perfect for this hot grilled burger.
Multi-Grain Rolls are bread perfect for burgers, grilled chicken, and any type of sandwich filling. It’s hard to believe that these delicious, soft buns are packed with 25 grams of whole grains and 4 grams of fiber.
There's no artificial preservatives, colors or flavors. No high fructose corn syrup, 25 grams of whole grain per serving, 4 grams of fiber per bun, 6 grams of protein per serving, No cholesterol.
The flavors explode in your mouth. It's no wonder. Take a look at the ingredients.
